Writing is an art, which requires a life and I don’t know how to write, I know how to paint, after 25 years, I don’t stop learning and growing. Words can probe the deepest reality, but it is not the only way, you can have few words and still have a profound impact on the nuances of reality, you can have songs in your mind, plastic and colors.

I have colors.

When I look at a painter I also see words. Meanings, ways of seeing the world and nature, that have been transferred, inherited from one artist to another. As if we all spoke the same language, a hidden one. Hidden it is, behind the colors that live in my mind.

I do not hide in the colors, from the unbearable reality. I want to think that I shape it, I want to think that it can be inhabited in other realities. I want to think that I win the fight, freedom from myself, freedom from reality. I want to be able to see a space, a small work of art and it reminds me of this, it speaks to me about the spirit, I want to inhabit dreams. Imagine the psyche of a great musician, composing songs in his mind, or a poet spinning beautiful phrases full of meaning. Evading the weight of the psychic constructions of the most common social dynamics. What a beautiful girl, that guy looked at me ugly, how badly that old man drives, how fat, how tall, DO RE MI FA SOL LA SI, isn’t it perhaps a transmutation.

I don’t know how to write, I can put these meaningful sentences, which I will regret later, not a poet. Nor from what I have painted, a constant growth, the practice of a static that comes from colors and forms. A way of meditating, a way of praying, perhaps that is why I am building altars today.

Tierra Profunda Rene Ortega

René Ortega utiliza fórmulas de liminalidad para iniciar al espectador a experimentar los misterios del inframundo. Hay una puerta de flores, una escalera de anillos a túneles, afinada con un aro de colores. Todo esto está aquí dentro de los secretos de nuestra tierra. En estos pasos buscamos un centro que ya es un estado completo, un lugar unido por los opuestos e igual a sí mismo. René agrega esquinas al círculo giratorio para crear una faceta para ver otros espacios y otros tiempos.

TIERRA PROFUNDA

Mi enfoque se enfatiza en la búsqueda de las respuestas transcendentales las problemáticas ecológicas y sociales de la humanidad que enfrentamos actualmente.

Con mis obras pretendo hacer conciencia para situar al ser humano como parte importante de la naturaleza es el volver encontrándose con muestro yo interno y nuestros sentidos que se encuentran en un estado dormido es el volver a mirar y observar como un niño para situarnos en las profundidades de los infinitos subsuelos y planos de tierra imaginaria de mundos micros organismos vivos subterráneos que se transmutan constantemente en máquinas orgánicas voladoras y así te llevo transportándote a mi imaginario poético donde danzan líneas interminables y planos de vida que se juntan y separan al mismo tiempo incansable búsqueda de lo desconocido como las estrellas y la naturaleza transmutando a infinitos planos profundo de colores y formas que voy realizando atreves de esta incansable y cambiante movimiento y sonido de la vida.

René Ortega, fue uno de los ganadores en la bienal internacional de arte contemporáneo 3 de octubre de 2022. René ha expuesto obra en Chile y Argentina. Está involucrado en muchos programas de arte cultural que se han relacionado con hospitales, niños y la enseñanza del arte profesionalmente. Su muestra más reciente fue Mental Labyrinths en la galería de arte del Centro Cultural Til Til el 18 de junio de 2022.

“Mi preocupación es la figura humana como sentimiento de estados primitivos e irracionales, cuyo punto principal son las cabezas, pensamiento universal de la creación del hombre y centro del universo. Todo ello condujo a una mutación del lenguaje plástico y pictórico”.

yes you can only put butter in your coffee for so long
I will miss you my b vitamin steak
a world without milk unexpectedly
the ice cream is melting like time
there is nothing on Facebook Reels about how well the soil is doing, there is always a cyber mob confusing the economy with the stock market
we Americans have our expectations
we invaded Chile
it’s not a historical drama streaming television series yet
so it’s not history
like the Mississippians and the Buzzard Cult knew about the limited series
we are urban punks with superphones living in Cahokia
but you know with screens and phones how important we are
those long-lasting mall ways and convenience centers of Valhalla
didn’t last as long as the Milky way
I think Edgar Cayce meant the big crystal was a computer
now was then in a lexicographic loop
don’t worry every star outshines the parenthesis that seeks to contain it
